Route
(It will be a linear walk from Aintree train station to Hunts Cross train station 10.5 miles following an old railway line around the back of Liverpool known as the Liverpool Loop Line. The railway path provides a flat, well surfaced green corridor through the urban environment of east Liverpool, and forms part of the award-winning Trans Pennine Trail. Even though you are so close to a city it feels like you're out in the countryside. The route is managed like a linear woodland park. It runs through rocky cuttings and high on embankments with wide views across the city. Passing through Fazakerley, Walton, Knotty Ash (Alderhey Childrens Hospital), Broad Green, Childwall and Gateacre.
Plenty of parking at Aintree railway station or across the main road at the pub, gym or retail car park.
Trains from Hunts Cross to Aintree every 15 minutes, one change at Sandhills. Takes 41 mins and costs £4.20
